Faizah Nasser

Faizah Nasser, LMSW, helps people who are facing depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, and stress. She also supports those dealing with ADHD, grief, anger, self-esteem, career questions, and life changes. Her first priority is listening and creating a space where a person can talk about what matters most to them.

Faizah uses a client-centered style that keeps the conversation focused on the person's goals. She combines that with practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and replace it with workable habits. Trauma-Focused Therapy is one of the approaches she uses when past events are affecting present life.

She draws on eight years of clinical work in outpatient clinics, hospitals, and schools. Those settings have shaped how she helps people with both one-on-one sessions and group formats. Her background includes supporting people with parenting skills, attention differences, and mood concerns.

Sessions aim to be straightforward and goal-focused. Faizah often uses mindfulness practices and motivational interviewing to increase awareness and sharpen motivation for change. She encourages small, doable steps so progress feels manageable.

People meet her in Michigan and sessions are conducted in English. Her approach treats therapy as a practical tool to build coping skills, reduce distress, and improve everyday functioning.

How these approaches translate to online work

Faizah commonly blends Trauma-Focused Therapy with client-centered care and cognitive behavioral therapy to help people untangle painful memories, sharpen coping skills, and change patterns that cause distress. Trauma-Focused Therapy focuses on addressing how past events affect current feelings and behavior. Client-centered therapy centers the conversation on what matters to the person and uses listening and reflection to guide change. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at thoughts and actions, offering concrete exercises to ease symptoms like anxiety and depression.

Choosing the right mix of methods is a collaborative process. Faizah will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they adjust the approach as progress is made or needs shift.

Confirm the exact session options before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and let people work on grounding skills between meetings. It can also allow for shorter check-ins when a quick strategy boost is needed or for regular weekly sessions when deeper work is the goal.
